Yeah, I was mid test and I've been kicked out and my test marked as "complete." I think they're just nuking the whole thing and starting over.

Yeah, okay, I logged in on Firefox (I've been using Chrome) to find "You have no tests pending (and 1 test completed)"
This better mean I don't have to take it again.

Take CASPer @take_CASPer 13m13 minutes ago
We're opening up test sessions for tomorrow as well. If you are able to take CASPer tomorrow, you'll be much happier!
I'll be happier if I can take the CASPer test tomorrow??? No, I'd be happier if I could have taken it TODAY at the time that I was scheduled to take it!

just got this message
It looks like everyone is stuck. We are not able to fix this without dropping the number of applicants per test. We will need to reschedule everyone.
We'll open up a bunch of timeslots today and tomorrow and rebook everyone. You do not need to do anything and we'll message you as to the re-booking time via email.
Check twitter and for updates:https://twitter.com/take_CASPer
We should have an update by 2pm EDT.
Thanks,

I can't even access that anymore. It says that my test is completed, though I never actually got past that point.
Good luck to everyone with rescheduling!
Whoa, it does, I just refreshed and it works. About to begin the test...?
Seriously tho. I went to Touro-NY and talked with the students about the school. They were like, "Look, you know how hard it was to get someone to acknowledge your RSVP to come here? It's like that with EVERYTHING. And medical school is already hard enough."
I'm still going to take this test, but I would really really like to know if NYMC properly addresses this issue.

As if charging $120 for a secondary that doesn't actually add anything to my application wasn't enough.
On a side note, I am now seriously contemplating doing some unethical things to CASPer and NYMC, so I guess my test wouldn't be promising anyway

Just got the same message on my account login page.
Probably not
"Also take a moment and, if possible, try to eliminate "bandwidth hogging" sources like Netflix sessions (could be on your TV), torrent downloads or any online games. These may cause videos and test pages to load slowly and/or haltingly."
Oh I'm sorry, so I am the one with the horrible servers and internet connection?

Med school is a sellers market, so they'll probably be like to bad to sad, take it or get ****ed

At least they apologized! Good on them
So it seems we will be able to pick our time, but will just reschedule the time that they give us.
Good Because I was laughing at least 60 percent of the time.
So the test is going to be offered today and tomorrow?
So we either have to take this test today or tomorrow... or wait till September 16th? What the hell>?
10, 2, or 6 only??
Where do you see that?
Rescheduled mine for 2PM EST I guess...
Here are the new times...
Monday, August 17th (EST): 10AM, 2PM, 6PM, 8PM.
They said they're rescheduling people for "today" and tomorrow... No test dates for today as far as I can see. Why can't they just tell us they're not able to fix it for today?!?
Edit: I clicked on the calendar button, 2PM doesn't show up in this image because I already rescheduled mine.
